1.1

OVERVIEW

This Mainboard is a high performance personal computer mainboard. It is a Slot1,
ATX form-factor mainboard with the Intel® 82440BX/ZX AGPset™ and
Winbond® I/O chipset. There are the A.G.P. (Accelerated Graphics Port) and PCI
Local Bus on the mainboard.. It is designed for 233MHz, 266MHz, 300 MHz,
333MHz, 350MHz, 366 MHz ,400MHz, 433MHz, 450MHz, 466MHz and
500MHz high performance Pentium™ II and Celeron™ (S.E.C. Cartridge)
processors
This mainboard is designed by using the Intel
system chipset. When different chipset is installed on the board, the feature of the
following mainboards will have different feature as following:

This mainboard has built-in two channel "PIO" and "Ultra DMA/33 Bus Master"
mode PCI IDE ports, one Floppy Disk control port, two high speed Serial ports
(UARTs) and one multi-mode Parallel port and supports PS/2™ mouse, IR and
USB ports. It is designed to support the high performance Pentium™ II and
Celeron™ processors for the high-end and true GREEN-PC computer systems.
Pentium™ II and Celeron™ are the 64-bit processors with RISC technology,
which offers several key features such as built-in 512K/128K L2 cache, 12-stage
super-pipeline architecture, out of order execution .... etc. In order to optimize of
its capabilities and performances, the 32-bit Operating System (such as
Windows® NT and OS/2™) and 32-bit applications are recommended.
